It will go in and out of bulk mode, stop charging while driving etc. Could a flat starter battery effect how it charges?

It's probably the smart alternator. Take a look at the engine detection settings, including the cut out voltage. There's a setup guide in the manual, you may want to down the latest pdf version from the Victronenergy web site.
If you don't get the automated side working, look at providing an on/off signal to the Orion LH setup options and a switched feed from the ignition. Radio wiring is a good source gor the signal.
